SWIRL COFFEE CAKE
Coffee cake can be a little ho-hum (it’s okay, we can admit that), with a tendency for a dry, albeit serviceable cake layer. This recipe is different, though! Like my Blueberry Coffee Cake, it’s made with yogurt and a lot of butter, which means you get a cake with a moist, tender crumb. And as if that’s not enough, there’s that chocolate swirl—which, I should note, is made with melted chocolate, not cocoa powder, for extra richness it support.
Of course, the thing that makes a coffee cake a coffee cake is the crumb topping, and we don’t skimp there either! Each bite has the perfect crumb-to-cake ratio, and the cinnamon in the crumb layer really makes the chocolate in this recipe sing.
Whether you’re looking for a special breakfast recipe or something to make for a book club get-together, this coffee cake will be a winner Event production.
